Ground Beef and Plantain Bowls
With all of our time at home I'm surprised we are actually doing well not over eating and keeping on a healthier path. I do enjoy a lot of the Whole 30 recipes and this one was right up my hubby's ally! He's a huge chimichuri fan and this one gave it a creamy texture....
Instant Pot Chicken Pad Thai
Pad Thai is one of my favorite meals. The Instapot makes it faster to toss together for a quick dinner without a lot of fuss. We loved the flavor of this one and the noodles came out perfectly without being mushy. Instant Pot Chicken Pad Thai(Adapted from The Girl on...
Bee’s Knees
Normally I'm not a gin fan, but we happened to be at a restaurant where the bartender swore he could change my mind with just one drink. Of course I called his bluff and 2 drinks later I seriously couldn't get enough! I recently bought a bottle of color changing gin...
Chorizo dip queso fundido
Our family loves queso especially my son. We thought it would be fun to elevate our normal Velveeta with salsa to something more like a restaurant would serve. The result was a lovely stringy cheese that was soooo good! Trust me this won't disappoint. Chorizo dip...
Taco Cupcakes
Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner! While we won't be celebrating with friends, we can make cupcakes and have Taco Tuesday!!! I recently made these as my dessert for the grade level taco bar we did for school field day. They where a huge hit and super cute! I...
Dragon Noodles
Here's the second part of the recipe I mentioned on Monday. These Dragon Noodles pack a punch, but you could easily tone down the heat. On their own they where almost too spicy, but when paired with the shrimp and broccoli the sweetness paired nicely which toned down...
Honey Garlic Shrimp and Broccoli
Today's recipe will be a 2 part. I'll share the shrimp and broccoli recipe today and the noodle recipe on Wednesday. They pair so well together with the sweetness of the shrimp and the spice of the noodles. My family gobbled this up and has already requested I make it...
Cheesy Garlic Sausage and Bacon Carbonara
Here's a twist on the traditional carbonara pasta recipe. Hubby loved it with the sausage added and the sauce really came together nicely. The only thing I did differently is, we grilled the sausage instead of cooking in the pan. Cheesy Garlic Sausage and Bacon...
Cannoli Stuffed Crepes
Crepes are a really great thing you can have for breakfast, brunch or dessert. We like making them, but often times to save time I buy the premade crepes from the grocery store. They are the perfect amount and I don't spend so much time over the stove with a ton of...
Bourbon Mushrooms
Sometimes it's nice to keep things simple. I made these mushrooms to top a steak then used the leftovers with chicken and again in an omelet one morning. There's not a lot of photos, since the recipe is to the point and quick and easy to make. What's your favorite...
Balsamic Glazed Caprese Chicken
I hope everyone is enjoying the time to slow down and focus on family now a days. We sure have enjoyed it and the weather lately is a huge help. We have been rotating meals inside and outside and even do a picnic on the front lawn. This recipe is great to make a batch...
Crispy Mongolian Beef
I love a simple dish that does not require a lot of ingredients, but packs a flavor punch. We really enjoyed this Mongolian Beef recipe. It's great seared over rice or noodles or even in a lettuce wrap. The reduced sauce works well keeping the beef crispy and not get...
